• Thanks to everyone that has picked up a copy of Nightmare! We have a review tab on our Facebook page and we would love to hear what you think. If you don’t have a copy yet, you can get it from LivingInANightmare.com (recommended if your name is in it!) or on iiTunes!
• If you have a blog or podcast, we would love for you to include and/or review our music. We have a wide selection of songs on the PodSafe Music Network at MusicAlley.com, so feel free to use them. If you do, please let us know so we can add you to our website! Also, if you happen to work for or run a school radio station and are interested in playing our stuff, please e-mail us at buildingromestl@gmail.com with info on your school and station and we’ll send you a CD ASAP.
• We’re interested in booking Friday and Saturday night shows at some colleges and other venues within 5-7 hours of St. Louis (Chicago included) between now and the end of December (after which we plan to hit the road full time). If anyone can offer some assistance with setting up shows in their hometown or direct us to appropriate venues to contact, please e-mail us at bookbuildingrome@gmail.com with more information.

Thanks again to everyone for your support! Anything you can do to help spread the word about the new CD is much appreciated!
